Question

Select the incorrect w.r.t Millers and Urey's Experiment:

• A. $N{H}_3,C{o}_2,H_2\text{gases were used}$
• B. Experiment run for 18 days
• C. Ratio of gases used was 2:1:2
• D. Alanine, Glycine, Aspartic acid were produced

Answer 1

The correct option is A $N{H}_3,C{o}_2,H_2\text{gases were used}$

Miller and Urey’s experiment performed by Stanley Miller and Harold Urey was intended to prove the fact that life originated due to chemical reactions of inorganic molecules. This experiment employed methane (CH4), Ammonia (NH3), and Hydrogen (H2) in the ratio 2:1:2, and carbon dioxide was not used in the experiment.
